With the exhibition of the 119th edition of Jungle Fight, held on the 26th, in the capital of São Paulo, TV Globo led in all areas in real time. The audience number in Rio de Janeiro was also the highest this year.
Jungle Fight returns on the 30th of this month for its 120th edition, which marks 20 years of the biggest MMA event in Latin America, in Vila Velha, Espírito Santo. In the main fight, a duel between Espírito Santo and Minas Gerais.
Representative from Espírito Santo, Vitor Costa, who has a record of five wins and one setback, faces Rafael “Cabeça” from Minas Gerais, nine wins and four losses, in a fight valid for the middleweight belt.
“20 years ago we discovered the greatest warriors, from Oiapoque to Chuí, showing the strength of Brazilian MMA to the world. These consecutive audience records show our strength. We're just getting started. This has been our work for 20 years: to give impartial opportunities and enormous visibility to jungle warriors", emphasizes Wallid Ismail.
“I am very grateful to programming and studio director Amauri Soares for betting on Jungle Fight and identifying MMA as a powerful television product. Now we're going with everything to Vila Velha, in Espírito Santo. I thank Mayor Arnaldinho Borgo and Governor Renato Casagrande for supporting our sport", added the president of Jungle Fight.
